One Shot, One GoalThird person's pov
"Am I still allowed for tryouts?" Lisa asked to break the silence that roamed around the gym. Jisoo, who was in astonishment finally came back to her senses.
"Lisa Manoban, tama?" She asks while getting the paper at the table. The taller girl nods in response.
"Wends, sino ba 'yan?" tanong ni Seul na kanina pa nagtataka sa reaksyon ng mga kasamahan niya.
"Hindi mo kilala yan? Lisa was a famous varsity player from YGU. As far as I remember when she graduated from high school, ang daming nag alok sa kanya ng opportunities mula sa iba't ibang kilalang universities including JYPU."
"Oh? Eh bakit dito siya sa SU nag join e hindi naman kilala ang team natin?" Tanong muli nito ngunit nag kibit-balikat lamang si Wendy.
"Join them," Jisoo said, pointing at the rest while reading Lisa's form. Lisa obliged silently, still wearing her uniform, but, someone grabbed her by her collar.
"What do you think you're doing?" a cold voice behind her made her shiver. She turns around and smiled because it was a grumpy Irene—the team's assistant coach— who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"IRENE SUNBAENIM!" seulgi shouted and her voice echoes inside the gym dahilan para mas lalong kumunot ang noo ni Irene. Seulgi run towards her and was about to hug her but she pushes Lisa as a shield—shockingly, si Lisa yung nayakap ni Seul.
"Sweet," Lisa said uninterested, making Seulgi break the hug.
"Kadiri ampota. Di tayo talo pre ha." Sagot nito sabay tingin ulit kay Irene na nakangiti, "Sunbae-nim, late ka ata ngayon a? Rules, rules!" she asks, wanting attention from the shorter girl but Irene ignored her, telling Lisa to change before getting to the court.
"Not now, Seul. Bukas nalang ulit. Laban lang!" she said in her thoughts. She's been admiring Irene for years now. Nasa middle-school pa lang siya, childhood crush niya na talaga si Irene. Si Irene rin ang dahilan bat siya sumali sa basketball nung tumungtong siya ng college kasi nalaman niyang assistant coach ito ng club, kahit wala siyang alam ni-katiting sa sports na pinasukan niya, sumabak siya mapansin lang siya ni Irene.
After magpalit ni Lisa, nakasali naman siya sa basic skill training. Nakapasa rin siya sa try-outs pero pina-upo muna siya ni Irene sa isang bench dahil sa late siya, hindi muna siya makakasali sa practice match. Nabaling ang atensyon niya kay Ryujin na kanina pa nakikipag-bardagulan kay Seulgi dahil hindi nito nasalo yung bolang ipinasa niya.
"Kasalanan ko bang tatanga-tanga ka kaya di mo nasalo yung bola?!"
"Kita mong nakatalikod ako! Pa'no ko sasaluhin yung bola?! Siraulo ka ba?!"
"Kaya nga mag observe ka sa paligid mo at sa teammates mo! Ikaw yung walang bantay, malamang sayo ko ipapasa. Kanino ba dapat? Kay Moon byul na dino-double team?!"
"Wag mo kong pangaralan! Alam ko yon, bano!"
